About This Home

As of July 2021

This absolutely charming mid-century Ranch-style home with great curb appeal is located on a lightly traveled cul-de-sac in beautiful upper Altadena. Sited on a deep lot with towering pine trees in front and a spacious rear yard, the house has been lovingly maintained and updated in recent years. The kitchen, freshly painted with new tile counters and recessed lighting, includes a new stove hood and new dishwasher. The living room with brick-faced fireplace and delightful dining room with bay window are highlights of the public rooms. The main bath includes dual sinks with marble countertop and the 3/4 bath in the garage also offers a marble countertop. The garage has been converted to an office/gym and includes a mini-split HVAC system, laundry area and laundry sink. The rear yard features a brick patio, delightful arbor, and large flat grassy area plus storage shed. This is a most inviting property on a quiet, secluded street.
